Andrew Carnegie I look upon as one of the world's big meddlers. A 'cute' meddler too, for he takes care to do nothing that hasn't got his name tacked on to it.
"I don't believe you feel right, either. I just know you've got an awful headache right now. Do let the man give you a nice piece of this steak." "Don't, I beg of you, Lady Ashmorton! The suggestion is extremely repugnant to me. Besides, I'm behaving this way because I arose with the purely humourous fancy that my head was a fine large accordeon, and that some meddler had drawn it out too far.
So crying out, she shrank away from him, and threw off his hand and struck at him fiercely, like some soft little wild thing suddenly hurt. "How could you? Why did you tell him?" she cried. "I hate you. I'll hate you for this as long as I live. You have sent him to his death you meddler, you simpleton! And you don't even know what you have done. You have sent him to his death, I tell you!
But for me, he had perished and none but I was the cause of his escape. Well for him that it was in his leg that he suffered and not in his life! Were I a man of many words or a busybody, I had not done him this kindness; but now I will tell you something that happened to me, that ye may know that I am indeed sparing of speech and no impertinent meddler, as were my six brothers; and it is this:
As it is, I can only consider you an impertinent meddler." Again he would have passed on, but Jem stood in a determined way before him, saying "You say if I had been her brother, or her father, you'd have answered me what I ask.
And now, you dear, precious, old meddler, good-by. You shall, one day, sit in the snuggest corner of as cosy a little home in the West as was ever made in the East;" and she vanished, leaving the old gentleman chuckling to himself, "It doesn't look as if it would be 'stopped' after all. Perhaps sister will find out that I know how to meddle a trifle better than she does."
The professor heard the cry, stared at the pair, and guessed what had happened. "Listen, you meddler," he addressed Placido, "I wasn't questioning you, but since you think you can save others, let's see if you can save yourself, salva te ipsum, and decide this question."
But think not to pry into the king's business as thou dost into the affairs at the castle. From thine own showing thou must have been a great meddler there." "And how could I have done thy business there if I had not meddled, as thou callst it?" "I say not that thou couldst," returned Sir Thomas. "I do but warn thee not to meddle with us. And now, where is the package?" "Package?
And Adhemar began to laugh, the laugh with which realism strives to destroy dreams. Mlle. Frahender gently removed the bracelet from the hands of the objectionable old meddler. "You must rest and avoid excitement, dear, dear child," she said, leading Esperance to her room, after bowing to Adhemar. Maurice and Jean, who had witnessed the godfather's want of tact, reasoned with him.
"O most noble Lucifer!" said he, "prince Moloch has quieted part of the North and has scattered thousands over the sheets of ice; but three or four terrible evils are still out on the wind." "Who are they?" said Lucifer. "Slanderer, and Meddler, and Litigious Pettifogger," said he, "have broken their prisons and are at liberty."
